Reflective Optoswitch
VTR16D1
Arrow Retro with PCB Mount Leads
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This series of reflective optical switches combines an infrared emitting diode (IRED) with
an NPN phototransistor (VTR16D1) in a one piece, sealed, IR transmitting plastic case.
The sealed construction improves resistance to moisture and debris. Units have PC
board mount leads. Refer to VTR17xx for devices with flying leads.
